I think calling it a phobia would be an exaggeration, but I'm rather wary of heights, depths, and cavernous spaces, which is no small part of why I don't like New York City

Re: Scared?

INSECTS! All of them! *shivers*

Parasites!

Having to rely on someone, needing help.

I'm afraid of the end of the world. Not that i'd ever see it, but I'm afraid that humanity or a natural disaster will destroy everything good left in this world. The fact that it's inevitable doesn't make it any better.

I have a paralyzing fear of spiders and I get worse with heights the farther up I go (the same when I'm in an elevator).I used to be pretty bad with deep water, but we stay at my Uncle (I think)'s lake house every summer, so I've gotten better with that. (Though at night... >_> )

I second that.

Re: Scared?

I have something of a fear of creepy-crawly things. Larger spiders (don't really care about the tiny ones), centipedes, etc. Having been bitten by a spider before kinda has that effect.

Also I kinda freak out in deep water. Like, the kind where you're really far from shore and there's not even a hint of the bottom anywhere. Luckily you pretty much have to swim miles out to reach any spot like that in Hawaii.

And yes, bit of a social phobia with people I don't know well. Even though I generally do fine if I just plunge into it.

Wow, it's interesting that so many people are creeped out by deep water. I guess I can admit that I am too . Ironic because I'm a diver . I don't mind swimming around ON TOP of deep water, it's just when I'm diving DOWN into it. The dropoff in Lake Tahoe creeps me out the most.

Also, it's not much of a phobia, but I HATE it when radios start making weird noises. Every now and then the radio at home gets left on the AM band, and late at night it makes those stereotypical sci-fi noises. CREEPY!

Actually, that is quite a valid fear. I get sad if anyone says any bad criticism of things I do. It is not a phobia, but I sure do not like it, I break under pressure if people yell at my mistakes as well.

The first thing that comes to mind is vomiting. I hate, hate, hate throwing up. >_< I'm tempted to say I'd rather deal with a flu for a week than vomit just once--and whenever I do start to vomit I fight as hard as I can to keep it down. I know I shouldn't, I know it never works, and I know it only makes things much worse in the end, but I absolutely hate throwing up! >_< :/

That, and I'd say I'm afraid of old age and of its effects on my mind (and body, I suppose, but especially on my mind).

I've got at least one other strong fear, but I think I'll keep it to myself for the moment. ^_^;;

I guess I might be a little afraid of growing old alone too but, meh, I dunno. Sometimes the thought bothers me, and sometimes it doesn't. *shrugs*

...hmm. My strongest fears have something to do with me not being in control of my thoughts or actions, in one way or another. I wonder if that's significant somehow. :\
